Abstract: 30,094. Tabulo, L. Dec. 31. Geared pulley-hoists; self-sustaining gear.- To enable rapid raising and lowering of the loadless hook in worm-driven pulley-blocks, one or more hooks are attached to the endless load chain and the load-chain wheel is connected through the medium of a free-wheel device to the worm-wheel. The shaft 2 of the worm 4 is journaled in the frame 1 and is operated by an endless chain 8 passing over the wheel 7. The worm-wheel 5 and load-chain wheel 10 are loose on the shaft 6. The boss of the chainwheel is formed eccentrically to the shaft 6 and projects into the worm-wheel, which is of box form. Segmental blocks 11 are mounted between the inner periphery of the worm-wheel and the boss of the chain-wheel; and rollers 12 and a wearing-ring 13 are fitted between the inner surfaces of the segments and the boss of the chain-wheel. A pin on one segment engages an eccentric slot in the chain-wheel. Relative motion between the worm and chain wheels can thus take place in one direction, and this is utilized to adjust the unloaded hook or for manipulating light loads by pulling on the load chain. Otherwise the apparatus is used as an ordinary worm block. The hook may be attached by a pin to one link of the chain, or may be attached by a shackle to a projection formed on one link. Specifications 15,040/09 and 28,215/11 are referred to.
